The Imperial Family (Part 2)

Although Xie Xiaoman really couldn't say anything smart about Concubine Pan. Fortunately, King Mu Zhao Yang had hardly inherited his mother's stupidity.

He knows what belongs to him and what should never be asked for, so he can preserve a happy death for himself and his children.

In the thirty-second year of Jianyan, the emperor took over the vassalage of Jianchangfu with King Mu, and the vassalage of Jiankang with King Huai, and officially appointed their eldest son as the crown prince, which ensured that the two grandsons would still be kings of the county for the first generation. As for the future,

It's not his business anymore.

In view of the increasing prestige of Emperor Jianyan and the fact that he did not have many sons, Yan Guan did not complain too much about this. But with it came a question, where is the successor of King Yan?

This question is actually easy to answer. Just ask which of King Yan's five sons has a grandfather named Han Shizhong. However, the children are still too young now, so some things still need to be looked at.

However, Xie Xiaoman privately felt that Zhao Guanjia, who had been wise and martial all his life, was indeed a little confused in this matter. Of course, the main responsibility did not lie with him, but with Concubine Wu.

In order to invest more in scientific research, Zhao Guan's family, who was over fifty years old, appointed the Secret Pavilion to supervise the government. At the same time, he was supervised by King Yan. This caused him to be unclear about many things. For example, Concubine Wu preferred her third grandson Zhao Hu and often held her in her arms.

Coaxing. The elderly Queen Mother Wei also came to Yanjing after the death of all the concubines of Emperor Huangling of Song Dynasty, and kept Zhao Xiang, the fourth son of King Yan, by her side - the child's biological mother was from her natal family.

Empress Dowager Wei is fine. People who are almost 80 years old may think she is confused. Under the rule of Zhao Guan's family, the Wei family is just a face-loving relative. But Concubine Wu is a bit too much. Her natal family is very powerful.

Not to mention others, Wu Yike, the same mother and brother, was transferred from the minister of Honglu Temple to Annan Road as the strategic envoy. He was a proper official. He was also the son and daughter of Wang Shixiong, the commander of the left army of the imperial camp. Under such circumstances, you should not

Revealing excessive affection for a certain grandson affected King Yan's judgment.

So Xie Xiaoman felt that after Concubine Pan Xian left, Concubine Wu still failed to become the queen, purely because the Zhao family was dissatisfied with her doing so. She could see that in her husband's mind, the love of his children was not as important as that of King Han Qin.

It is not as important as national stability.

Fortunately, Xie Xiaoman thinks openly. After all, officials are people who value affection and justice, and they will not be too bad to the people around them. When he realizes that the two most distinguished women in the dynasty have done something wrong, he will discuss the matter with the ministers.

, without hesitation, he carried his three-year-old grandson into the venue and let him play with his private seal.

This made Han Shizhong burst into tears.

However, the ruthlessness of time is that it will not change any trajectory because of your character. In the forty-third year of Jianyan, Yang Yizhong, the king of Jingsai County, passed away, and the eyes of Zhao Guan's family have never been brighter. If it is said that at this time, he

If he could still manage to hold on, what happened the next year would be even more unbearable for him: Han Shizhong, King of Qin in the Song Dynasty and the backbone of the Zhao official family, died suddenly in his sleep at the age of eighty-four.

The affection between people cannot be generalized. If Yang Yizhong was only extremely important to his Zhao Guan family, then Han Shizhong's death represented the complete end of an era.

The era that belonged to him, Zhao Jiu, worked hard to avenge his shame, destroy the country and show his prestige, and turn things around. After all, it passed with the death of his old friend.

Zhao Jiu suddenly fell ill and stayed ill for several months. This caused panic in the palace, and there were discussions inside and outside the court. However, given the establishment of the secret pavilion system and the fact that King Yan was in charge, there was no chaos after all. His four daughters all came back to take turns.

He finally recovered from his illness at the end of summer.

But he immediately made an earth-shattering decision: on the grounds of old age and frailty, he moved to Zhao Xu, King of Yan.

This scared the ministers and even the King of Yan himself. This man was notoriously frivolous, and since ancient times, how many emperors had voluntarily given up their throne?

Not to mention Song Huang Ling Emperor, he was trying to escape.

Zhao Xu begged hard, but the minister sincerely tried to persuade him to stay, but Zhao Jiu was annoyed. He grabbed the jade seal and threw it to King Yan, saying directly: "I don't want to give it to you, and you don't have the ability to take it. Since I gave it to you, just take it, otherwise

I regret passing it on to others, just don’t regret it.”

Listen, listen, is this what an emperor said?

But Hu Yin, Lin Jingmo and Yu Yunwen, the old ministers who are still in the court, all think this is very Zhao Guan's family. They haven't heard the words "tiger and wolf" in many years, and they really miss it!

But Zhao Xu obviously didn't adapt to it. He almost had a heart attack because of his father's fright. Finally, he didn't dare to refuse anymore. Then, an official from the Ministry of Rites wrote a formal edict of "three resignations and three concessions", and the Qintian Supervisor selected him.

On the auspicious day of the zodiac, Zhao Jiu, who had led the Song Dynasty for forty-four years, formally abdicated to his 38-year-old son Zhao Xu (renamed Zhao Chang). At the same time, he also relented and issued an imperial edict the day before his abdication. Concubine Wu officially became the queen of the Song Dynasty.

Although Empress Song became the Supreme Empress one day later, as the only concubine to watch the ceremony, Xie Xiaoman still saw the tears she couldn't help but let out a sigh.

At the same time, next year will be the first year of Shaoxing.

Regarding the willful move of the Supreme Emperor to the old capital, Xie Xiaoman felt that the officials had really wronged his father, and Zhao Jiu's prestige was too high. He wanted to destroy Xia, conquer Liao, pacify Jin, and restore the old mountains and rivers; accept Dali and Jiaozhi, and return the land to Liu.

.Developing maritime trade and increasing grain production, his achievements in this life made all the officials willing to crawl at the feet of this lord. Under such circumstances, he stayed in Yanjing, which was detrimental to the new emperor's establishment of his own authority.

The Supreme Empress Wu Yu was originally going to come to Tokyo with Zhao Jiu. After all, her husband still had no reason to enjoy happiness with his son. However, Zhao Jiu's words made her almost cry again, "It will not be easy for you in your life. Leaving Nanyang

The thing is, I'm sorry for you, and I'll pay you back today. Just take good care of your child."

Having been together for more than forty years, Wu Yu certainly knew what he was talking about. Fear, grievance and even emotion came over him, but he heard Zhao Jiu say: "I can't care about you because of the collapse of the earth and the mountains. But in this situation, can we let you

You go back to Tokyo to pull weeds and shoot rabbits with me? I'm not that mean. Besides, it hasn't been easy for you after all these years."

Wu Yu really cried, "It is my blessing to be able to serve the officials in this life."

Zhao Jiu smiled and said nothing more. On the contrary, Xie Xiaoman looked at the elderly couple with a lot of emotion. However, she still had to stay with Zhao Guan's family instead of going to her son's fiefdom in Shenyang for retirement. After all, she was not old either.

Zhao Jiu knew that Xie Xiaoman had never been to Tokyo. Occasionally, when he was energetic, he would tell her some old things about Tokyo. Of course, most of the time, he was still as groggy as an old man in his twilight years.

The scientific research of the Song Dynasty over the years has blossomed and bear fruit under the leadership of Zhao Jiu. There are many wonderful things that cannot be listed one by one. Now for the Supreme Emperor, the most happy thing is that Wei Wang Yue Fei, who is farming in Tangyin, will be there.

After the spring plowing and autumn harvest, they drove the mule cart into the palace to visit the emperor, the eighteenth king of Jianyan, the only one left.

After all, Xie Xiaoman had served the Supreme Emperor for decades, so he naturally knew in his heart that the Zhao Guan family valued the Yue Wang. But he never thought that Yue Pengju, who had been cautious all his life, would say such words during his three years in Shaoxing, "Your Majesty, what happened in Yanjing

, you may not be able to ignore it completely."

Zhao Jiu was stunned for a moment and said, "But what happened?"

But when Yue Fei said this, he had already reached his limit. No matter how difficult it was to explain, it didn't matter. The eldest princess of Nanyang came with her uncle. After hearing her father's call, she sighed: "Father, although the official family cannot compete with your divine martial arts,

Compared with the wise, everything is considered appropriate. However, over the years, the relationship with the queen has become increasingly weak, and King Qin Wuzhuang (Han Shizhong's posthumous title) has passed away again. This legitimate son is much younger than the eldest son, and the people in the court... That's it

What's going on?" There were some things she couldn't say, and many lucky people even came to the Yue family.

Yue Fei was the closest minister to the Supreme Emperor, Yue Yun was the commander of the Royal Camp, Navy and Army of the Song Dynasty, and she was the eldest daughter of the Supreme Emperor.

Shouchun Princess Shenyou, who returned from a trip to the northwest, put it more directly, "The emperor's eldest son is almost twenty years old, and Yuan Zuo doesn't like him as his legitimate son. Sister, why are you glaring at me? Since Xianggong Hu has also gone

, I wonder how many people want to speculate? After all, the queen’s father left early, otherwise who would dare to have such an idea?”

This is so true. Even if Han Shizhong retires 20 years ago, his influence in the army will be unmatched. But it is a pity that it is the saddest thing in the world for someone to leave.

Fortunately, King Han Qin was indeed gone. Isn't the Supreme Emperor Zhao Jiu still alive and well? Within a few days, the Imperial Palace in Yanjing received an imperial edict stating that the Supreme Emperor was ill and missed his son and daughter-in-law, and asked the emperor to make arrangements to serve him in Tokyo later.

Although Zhao Jiu was extremely mean to his father when he was the emperor, the current officials did not dare to be unfilial or negligent towards the Supreme Emperor. After receiving the news, they rushed over in a hurry.

As a result, it was recorded truthfully in the history books. A quick translation of the classical Chinese text shows that the Supreme Emperor said, "I heard that you are planning to abolish the legitimate son and replace the queen's legitimate son with another son. This made me so angry that I became very angry and sick."

The emperor was frightened and quickly knelt down and said, "There is absolutely no such thing. It's just that my son thought that the princes were young and wanted to observe them for a while."

The Supreme Emperor said: "From a national point of view, in a peaceful world, the etiquette of concubines and concubines is the foundation of stability. From a personal emotional point of view, if you do this, I will not be able to see Han Shizhong after I die, and I will not be able to close my eyes."

"

The emperor bowed his head and worshiped again, "As a son, you should never dare to make your father so angry. Everything is my fault. After my son returns to the capital, he will follow his father's example and write the name of the prince behind the plaque in Jiqing Hall. Qianqiu

From now on, I will only pass the location to him. Please relax and get well soon."

When Liang Hongyu, the wife of the State of Qin, heard about it, she cried and said: "King Wuzhuang has a spirit underground, and he will know the great kindness of the Supreme Emperor."

After this fight ended, Xie Xiaoman felt the power of her husband even more. He could just throw away his hands and ignore things. He could pass it on to his son, but when he really used his power, no one in the country could go against his will.

Judging from the Emperor's past achievements, this strength will continue until the moment of his actual death.

However, to be honest, Xie Xiaoman feels that although the current official family is a bit confused on the issue of establishing a prince, they are still understanding people who will not listen to partial beliefs and handle government affairs in an orderly manner.

On the contrary, Prince Zhao Zhi may not have been paid much attention by his father in his early years. It seems that the situation is a bit extreme. This extreme is reflected in his disdain for civil servants and his admiration for force. It is said that one of his favorite poems is "Niannujiao" written by the emperor's grandfather.

??Reminiscing about Bailu Mountain》

The mountains are high and the cliffs are steep. How many people in modern and ancient times have thought about this? A ghost has set up a magical device, and it seems to be that the sky is bounded by the southern and northern boundaries. A river stretches across the border, and hills are connected on three sides, making a fight for supremacy. What happened in the Six Dynasties?

It becomes a private plan!

Because the King of Laughter thanks everyone, he climbs high and embraces the distance, and he also imitates the tears of heroes. If you rely on the Huaihe River, you have to think that the smell of rivers and rivers is boundless. Fortunately, after a long march, the heavenly soldiers turned back to look for the oath in the middle. We are thieves, and we will not allow horses to act recklessly!

In his opinion, during the Jianyan period, if the emperor's grandfather had not been firm-minded and favored Han Yue, he would have been kept in a corner by those conservative scholar-bureaucrats and would no longer have the will to fight for the Northern Expedition.

Now the emperor is too kind to them, and each one of them wants to be the prime minister of Renzong who spits on the emperor's face.

It is not particularly strange that he has this idea, because as early as when he was a prince, one of his teachers was Chen Liang.

Zhao Chang really wanted his son to realize that there are ways to achieve peace in times of peace. Not everyone is a late-life figure like your grandfather. If someone goes east, he will never dare anyone to go west.

But it is a pity that his education was a little late. Even harem women like Xie Xiaoman could feel the strong sense of political discord when the father and son came to Tokyo twice a year to pay their respects.

However, as Xie Xiaoman got older, he was not as stubborn as he was when he was young. Instead, he would take the prince to the nursery, pick some vegetables for the children to cook, and then talk to him about grain production. This made

The later Emperor Wuzong always had a good impression of her and took more care of King Shen's family.

Some people are like the sun, moon and stars. People have become accustomed to their existence. But people are still people after all, and they will grow old one day. As Xie Xiaoman, who is closest to the Supreme Emperor, was the first to notice this, but

She also vaguely felt that Zhao Guan's family seemed to be waiting for support.

Finally, in the fifteenth year of Shaoxing, the legendary Wei Wang Yue Fei, former Marshal of Hebei Road and the youngest commander of the Song Dynasty, closed his eyes forever at the age of eighty-three.

Regardless of his old age, Zhao Jiu personally went to Tangyin to watch his burial. As if he had some wish, he said: "Pengju, you died a good death."

Thousands of years later, there is always one thing on my mind.

After returning to the palace, Zhao Guan's body was obviously failing. It was declining at a speed visible to the naked eye. Regardless of her age, the Supreme Empress Wu Yu followed Zhao Chang all the way. Almost the entire Imperial Hospital also came, but how could a mortal body withstand this?

A natural decline?

Finally, in early spring, the Supreme Emperor of Zhao and Song Dynasty woke up, looked at a room full of people, and said with a faint smile: "Why are you crying? Since ancient times, there have not been many emperors who live as long as me and can make troubles. I have no regrets in this life.

Now. They are all waiting for me underground. You don’t have to be too sad.”

Finally, he said to Zhao Zhi: "I passed the throne to your father. Although he cannot be said to be perfect, he managed to keep the family business and make the people happy. When you become the emperor, you don't ask for merit, but you must remember a bottom line. No matter the surname in the world,

Zhao, but it is also the world of all people. Without this fundamental, all my grandfather’s love for you will be in vain.”

Zhao Zhi burst into tears and kept kowtowing in agreement.

In the cold spring weather, the bright sunshine was shining on the earth, and everything was about to revive. But the man who revived the world slowly stopped breathing after all.

On the first day of February in the 16th year of Shaoxing, Emperor Zhao Jiu passed away in Gyeongbokgung Palace in Tokyo. As soon as the funeral bell rang, all the people howled, many scholars and veterans came to Tokyo for the funeral, and the entire central capital turned almost completely white overnight. The Ministry of Rites

He was given a posthumous title of Zhaowu and a temple name of Shizu.

No one thought he was unworthy. Only ministers such as Lu Jiuyuan raised the question. Did this belittle the achievements of the Supreme Emperor?

After all, when he took over the world, the two rivers were lost, the Central Plains was shattered, and the people were like ants. Countless officials surrendered to the Jin Kingdom, and the entire Song Dynasty was almost completely annihilated on the Huaihe River. The danger of national subjugation is by no means just talk.

And when he left this world, the territory of Zhao and Song Dynasty had expanded twice as much as that of Emperor Huangling of Song Dynasty. The country was prosperous and powerful, and the people were well-off. Japan's Western Liaoning Gan was a concubine, and the prosperous times of Han and Tang Dynasties were faintly reappeared. Hundreds of millions of people of Song Dynasty were fed and clothed.

There is no need to suffer the scourge of war. Even remote areas are constantly improving their education and living standards.

Not to mention his extraordinary achievements in the fields of navigation and coal.

In addition, he insisted on cultivating mulberry trees and fish ponds throughout his life, and experienced the hardships of farming like an ordinary person. He never engaged in personal luxury, and the number of people in his harem was only three.

Zhu Xi said without hesitation: "Since ancient times, there has never been an emperor who was worthy of our ancestors."

The official Zhao Chang summoned his three brothers and four sisters to observe filial piety for their old father. According to Zhao Jiu's last wish, Zongze, Lu Haowen, Yang Yizhong, Han Shizhong, and Yue Fei were buried together in Yongsi Mausoleum, and Li Gang was given the honorary title of Zongze.

Ancestral Temple.

After the simple but grand funeral, Xie Xiaoman naturally wanted to go back with his son, Prince Shen and Zhao Xin, to take care of themselves in old age. They have had several grandchildren over the years, but it was a pity that they didn’t have much time to get along with each other.

The Empress Dowager was somewhat reluctant to let her go, and asked her to keep her as her companion in the palace. Xie Xiaoman declined politely: "Actually, I am just a girl from the countryside, and staying in the palace for the rest of my life is enough, sister.

Just let me see the beautiful scenery outside the Great Wall." Wu Yu stopped forcing it.

In order to commend Xie Xiaoman for accompanying the Crown Prince, Zhao Chang specially treated him as a noble concubine and ordered the Crown Prince to go out of Beijing for thirty miles to see him off.

However, things in this world are unpredictable. No one could have imagined that just two years later, the official Zhao Chang would follow the late emperor, taking the temple name Xuanzong, and the crown prince Zhao Zhi would succeed him.

After that, there were always turmoils in the court. Zhao Zhi re-employed Xin Qiji, and his military style was undisguised. He did not tolerate provocation when developing the military, and refused the prime minister to make irresponsible remarks. The conflicts between civil and military forces were sharp. But Xie Xiaoman was serious.

As I get older, I don’t have that much energy to pay attention.

As a surprise, she taught her granddaughter to play "Fishing Boat Evening Sing" and thought it was good.

"The Biography of the Concubines in the History of the Song Dynasty" records that the Minjie noble concubine Xie Shi, whose name was Xiaoman, was from Hefei, Luzhou, and had a sensible nature. She served the ancestors for more than 40 years, was good at learning, and was a virtuous concubine in the country.
